In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) Market: Growth Drivers

Rapid shift to point-of-care testing is likely to boost the growth of the global market.

The traditional model of laboratory testing all across the globe was a centralized laboratory that utilized automatic analytical testing techniques to detect the target. However, this one was well established in metallurgy discipline & clinical chemistry and is now extending to other spaces also. Point-of-care devices over conventional procedures offer ease of use affordability and yield rapid results that are high in demand for initiating quick decision making. However, the high adoption rate of POC devices is largely impacted by the need to make the healthcare system more patient-centric.

Centralized testing does not offer a convenient process in respect of patients as the testing process is not connected with consultations calls. However, it poses a huge drawback for patients with chronic diseases like diabetes that need constant monitoring. Apart from this, the world is witnessing growing incidences of chronic diseases. Parallelly, there is a rise in awareness among people regarding the early diagnosis and proper treatment, which in turn is further expanding the scope of the global in vitro diagnostics (IVD) market. People became more aware of the availability of advanced novel IVD products.

In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) Market: Restraints

High cost of IVD instruments is likely to hamper the growth of the global market.

In-vitro diagnostics are quite expensive when compared to other available technology. It also requires constant maintenance of instruments which is further likely to hamper the growth of the global market. Additionally, such instruments also need skilled professionals to operate, thereby limiting its growth.

In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) Market: Opportunities

The high adoption rate of point of care testing devices is likely to create several lucrative growth opportunities in the global market.

Medical device companies are constantly increasing their research and development capabilities to innovate technologically advanced diagnostic devices. Hospitals and laboratories have shown high interest in the point of care testing devices to collect precise real-time data. Such an increase in interest in point-of-care testing devices is due to the constantly growing burden of diseases on healthcare infrastructure, which requires advanced results in a short period of time. Therefore, such a landscape is likely to offer ample impetus to the growth of the global market in the forthcoming years.

In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) Market: Challenges

Unfavorable reimbursement landscape is a huge challenge in the global market.

The lack of a proper financing system will hamper the growth of the global market. Advanced treatment is quite expensive, and therefore it restricts people from undergoing treatment through in vitro diagnostics, thereby posing a huge challenge in the global market.

In Vitro Diagnostics (IVD) Market: Segmentation

The global in vitro diagnostics (IVD) market can be segmented into product & service, technique, application, end-user, and region.

By product & service, the global in vitro diagnostics (IVD) industry can be segmented into software & services, instrument, and reagents segments.  Moreover, reagents segment is set to account for the largest share of the global market over the forecast timeline. The segmental growth can be attributed to growing demand for quick diagnosis of chronic and genetic disorders in its early stage.

By technique, the global market can be divided into clinical chemistry, tissue diagnostics, molecular diagnostics, hematology, and immunodiagnostics segments. Moreover, the molecular diagnostics segment is predicted to register the fastest growth over the forecast period owing to large-scale use of molecular diagnostics PCR for detecting infection and identifying causative organisms. In comparison to traditional diagnostics techniques, molecular diagnostics PCR techniques target fragments of bacteria to make diagnosis instead of culturable cell tissues.

Apart from this, massive use of molecular diagnostics in identifying fragile X syndrome, the von hippel-lindau disease, cystic fibrosis, glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration, and neurological disorders such as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies & Alzheimer disease will drive the segmental growth.

In terms of application, the global in vitro diagnostics (IVD) market can be bifurcated into Infectious Disease, Diabetes, Cardiology, Oncology, Autoimmune Disorders, and Drug Testing segments. The infectious disease segment is predicted to dominate the global market growth over the forecast timeline subject to massive use of in vitro diagnostics for determining microorganisms in the infectious diseases.

In terms of end-user, the global in vitro diagnostics (IVD) market can be segmented into Hospitals & Clinics, Laboratories, and Homecare Units. The hospitals & clinics segment is predicted to dominate the growth of the global market in the ensuing years as many diagnostic tests are carried out on patients admitted to hospitals.
